Travel Plans...

So, I am headed to Vegas this weekend to stay with Erin, and go to Memory Trends, a scrapbooking convention for retailers. I am taking NO CHILDREN with me! YEA! Honestly, I'm nervous to leave Haley. She is a momma's girl, and I'm going to miss her! I'm not worried about Troy taking care of her, just going to miss her. Anyways, we had a family trip to San Diego planned for the end of the month. We were going with my parents. Everyone was so excited to go. So, this morning, the GI doc called, and they got Haley in right in the middle of our San Diego trip. The next available appt. was the end of DECEMBER! So, we had to cancel our trip. I am really bummed about it. We were going to be there on my 30th birthday. YIKES! Anyways, Haley comes first, and I am dying to get to the bottom of her growing problem. So, my mom got us a condo in Vegas for 3 nights after Haley's appointment. Just our family will be going, so that will be fun. My kids have been dying to play with Erin's kids. For some reason, my kids think that the Fonnesbeck kids are their long lost cousins. Funny. So, I feel like I've had a CRAPPY day. Haley has an ear infection, and has been so grouchy, I've had work to do, and I'm trying to get ready to leave. Troy is hiking Timp with some guys from the ward early Saturday morning (which is GREAT!) but I just have to find people to take me to the airport, and watch my kids until Troy is finished. Anyways...I feel like this is one big gripe. I don't mean it to be...just voicing my frustrations of the day!

Have fun in Vegas. I am so glad you finally got your appt, even though it ruined your plans.

hi jen...this is meredith burt from way back when you used to be in the farmington ward. (i'm actually not in the farmington ward now either, but that's not hte point of the comment!:)

i heard a bit about your little girl, and i was just wondering what the result was of the celiac's test? my dad has that too, but of course, back then, they had no idea. when you feed her a gluten free diet, how does she do? when my dad quit eating wheat/gluten, he perked right up and started gaining weight.

another thing i thought of that i'm sure they tested for, but it always helps to try everything, is her kidneys. another friend of mine had alittle boy that wasn't growing either, and she thought it was allergies or something because the docs just kept saying he was small. when they tested, they found out one of the kidneys wasn't functioning properly, resulting in slow growth. just something to consider. i hope they figure it out.
